Mad_Max 231 Report post Posted June 13, 2019 Spotted last night heading from Balclutha towards Invercargill, a 1970ish E3 S on a trailer behind an 80's Landcruiser. Couldn't get a photo because I was too busy driving the aforementioned Landcruiser at the time ???? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I say "mostly" because most of it is in the boot ???.... it's nothing spectacular though.... plenty of surface rust and a couple of bad holes, but has 99% of the trim I need to sort the good one out that I should be picking up in a fortnight or so. That one I will grab a few pics of to share with the masses, hopefully it'll be a short term project before it's first cruise in 15 or so years ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I scored two from the same guy, who also happens to have a third one in decent condition that's had a 351 Windsor and 4 speed fitted, his daily is a manual E34 520i........ Oh and an 850CSi tucked away..... More shall be revealed once I collect the second, much better example ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't seen any others up for sale other than that red one on TradeMe to be honest, then again I wasn't actually looking for another car....... and truth be told I wasn't wanting to buy any more but couldn't say no at the price lol...... Scary bit is looking at parts prices on Fleabay last night...... $300 for a tail light lense........ $300 for a headlight or driving light....... $400 just for the light housing........ $1k for the centre grille.........

Mad_Max 231 Report post Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) @M3AN was gonna put another post up about spotting yet another E3 on a trailer behind a Landcruiser..... and how it was the same Landcruiser lol. But thought I'd just show you a couple of pics for now, picked the good one up tonight. Pics taken on my phone in the dark, so will post better ones in the daylight when I can. Oh and before anyone says anything, that tie-down over the front is just to hold the bonnet shut, don't freak and think I towed the car with just that on it ???

M3AN 4016 Report post Posted June 29, 2019 SF is a very different city now than it was 10 and 20 years ago... it's gone through evolution to revolution. Too much money, it's lost a lot of character. I remember staying in Palo Alto, not that long ago really (~17 years) and it was 50% slum. Oakland was a dive. lol. Still, it's a city I love, are you there for business or pleasure @KWS?
